Yes last year was a good line-up. The only thing that stinks is that they make it where if you want to see everything or ride every ride you have to pass some areas at least three time to get some where. There Midway is not a complete walk around. Go down one alley way then back then go down this ally then that alley all passing the middle area every single time and people do get fustrated and not go every where. Last year was a so-so year. The Coasters never really seemed to ever get that big wait forever to get on ride line. Wonder how this year will go. Also hopefully the Brothers will be nicer this year (yea Right)

Rides Get a flate rate to be there. Santa's Supplies Fuel. The free shows are paid weekly. Other people pay rent to be there ranging from $8500 to $15,000 per spot. There are maybe one or two on a percentage deal. Last year most Spots average rent was $1000 per week. Last year one Show pulled out early at 1:00am in the morn. I know Rockwell was there last year as was Dreamland and NAME and if remember correcty all three said they would be back. Will try and get a rundown on rides there later this week from friend working there this year.
